That's right. Immortalized. Dan from Bits Bytes Pixels & Sprites pointed us to this awesome Flickr set of a Monkey Island-inspired monkey head crafted in malleable snow. Five feet high and fourteen feet wide, it just goes to show that some gamers have too much time on their hands, but we somehow appreciate them that much more for it. More »
